1990 Geo Metro

81st Place, 6th Economy Car: One Lap of America, 2007

Faye Teal and her husband, David, participate in One Lap of America each year to raise money for "Laps to Conquer MS." In 21 previous Laps—the longest continuous streak by any One Lap regular—Faye Teal, herself a multiple-sclerosis sufferer, has campaigned in vehicles lent from various industry press fleets. This year, however, potential loans fell through, whereupon the Teals commandeered their son's Metro, described by Faye as "the most expendable thing he had on hand." The 2007 run netted about $5000 for the MS charity. The third man in the car was Wayne Hickman.
